Truly-Life Green in the Spring
Show at Gold Works

ALEXANDRIA, VA, March 16, 2011 - Truly-Life joins forces with Gold Works to present a special GREEN in the SPRING show. The eco friendly gift company Truly-Life was seeking a business mentor and they found it in Gold Works. The special GREEN in the SPRING show will be held March 18 through March 26, from 11:00am to 4:00pm at Gold Works, 1400 King Street. Stop by and meet both business owners and discover the new combined collection.

Operating a small business in the current economy can be a challenge. Mellenie Runion launched Truly-Life as the ultimate handmade GREEN gift company in Alexandria and has always sought great advice from other local businesses. David Martin, owner of Gold Works, and Mellenie met at a recent business networking roundtable. They discussed the possibilities of collaborating and ideas flew in every direction. Truly-Life introduced Gold Works to the range of eco friendly skin care and home gift furnishings they offer, while Gold Works began designing a new line of Earth inspired jewelry pieces transformed from recycled gold.

“We are energized about working together and have already started working on new concepts as a result of this alliance.” Mellenie Runion
